Opinion
CIVIL ACTION NO. H-12-2608
03-27-2013
JOEL DONALD MALLORY, JR., Plaintiff, v. HON. GREG ABBOTT, et al., Defendants.
ORDER
On March 26, 2013, a hearing was held on Joel Donald Mallory, Jr.'s motion for reconsideration of this court's order of dismissal. For the reasons stated on the record — including that the case is properly filed, in the interests of justice, in the Eastern District of Texas, where Mallory is in custody, where he was convicted, and where the events giving rise to the conviction all occurred, and that the custodian has not been named as a defendant — Mallory's motion for reconsideration, (Docket Entry No. 11), is denied. This case remains dismissed without prejudice to refiling in a proper venue against the proper defendant.
SIGNED on March 27, 2013, at Houston, Texas.
